Platform Real Estate is a two-day event dedicated to providing an up-to-date representation of the state of the art of the Real Estate world in Italy by putting at the centre the developers who, through their own developments and aspirations, can give a clear picture of the Real Estate world and future scenarios. The real estate sector is going through a phase of profound transformation, influenced by technological innovations, changes in buyer preferences, and new regulatory aspects. Hence the need to find a moment when those involved in development should get together around a table to discuss the new priorities and responsibilities that weigh on those who are in charge of transforming the cities in which we live. The event features Italian and foreign operators discussing and presenting trends, innovations and challenges in the real estate and urban regeneration sector. The initiative offers a unique opportunity for industry professionals to share experiences, develop contacts and update on the latest news and strategies in the Italian real estate market, also thanks to the presence of governmental and administrative representatives. This event represents a unique opportunity for all participants to get in touch with key market players, exchange ideas, develop partnerships and gain a comprehensive view of current trends and future developments in the real estate sector in Italy.

Where and when
The Platform Real Estate event will be held on 29 and 30 October at MAXXI – Museo nazionale delle arti del XXI secolo. The choice of this location is not random, as the MAXXI represents a successful example of urban regeneration, perfectly embodying the spirit of innovation and renewal that characterises the entire event. MAXXI, located in Rome’s Flaminio district, was designed by architect Zaha Hadid and opened in 2010. This museum, dedicated to contemporary arts and architecture, has rapidly become a cultural and artistic reference point not only for the city of Rome but for the entire international scene. MAXXI stands on an area formerly occupied by military barracks, transformed into a futuristic, multifunctional space that combines art exhibitions, cultural events and educational initiatives. This transformation has had a significant impact on the Flaminio district, contributing to its rebirth and attractiveness. Choosing MAXXI as the venue for Platform Real Estate underlines the importance of urban regeneration and architectural innovation, central themes for the future of real estate in Italy.
